How to Apply a Driveway Sealer One economical method of sealing is to apply boiled linseed oil thinned with kerosene or mineral spirits, mixed approximately 1 to 1. The mixture is usually applied in two applications by roller spraying or by a squeegee. However, it should be noted that some discoloration of the surface may be expected when sealing with a boiled linseed mixture. Resealing should be done approximately every two years. Good commercial sealers are also readily available from ready mixed concrete suppliers and hardware stores. The concrete sealing should be done after approximately 30 days of air drying, when the surface is dry, and preferably when the air temperature is above 70°F. The value of your concrete in place far exceeds the cost of sealing. It is highly recommended that you make this small investment to help provide the durability you expect and to maintain a relatively blemish free surface throughout the driveway's service life. |
